BILL NUMBER:S6577 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the public authorities law, in relation to claims and actions against the New York city school construction authority arising out of contracts PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To bring section 1744 of the Public Authorities Law into conformance with all other school districts in the state with regard to claims for contracts. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 - amends subdivision two of section 1744 of the Public Authorities Law to add an additional sentence that provides that in the case of an action or special proceeding for monies due arising out of contract, accrual of such claim shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date payment for the amount claimed was denied. Section 2 - provides that this act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to contracts executed on or after such date. JUSTIFICATION: This bill will bring the time of accrual for contractual work done for the New York City School Construction Authority into conformance with the Education Law provisions applicable to all other school districts statewide, will prevent the unintentional and unfair waiver of claims, and will reduce paperwork
